Last Resort

I have no idea what is causing this, but every once in a while, my computer starts running extremely slowly and the Task Manager says the processor is at 100% resources used. I would be very grateful if someone looked at my hijackthis log:

Hello and Welcome.

A slow machine is not always a product of infection. I don't see any sign of active infection

Please see this sticky topic:

Is your PC running slow...?

Additionally, we no longer use HijackThis as our initial analysis tool, as HijackThis is limited for today's infections.

If going through the steps for a slow machine does not help...

We want all our members to perform the steps outlined in the link I'll give you below, before posting for assistance. There's a sticky at the top of this forum, and a

Having problems with spyware and pop-ups? First Steps

link at the top of each page.

Please follow our pre-posting process outlined here:

NEW INSTRUCTIONS - Read This Before Posting For Malware Removal Help

After running through all the steps, you shall have a proper set of logs. Please post them in a new topic, as this one shall be closed.

If you have trouble with one of the steps, simply move on to the next one, and make note of it in your reply.
